This is all fucked up. Our oil&gas regulators are the archetypal example of regulatory capture ...

Aug draft by the Colorado Energy and Carbon Management Commission has at least 17 revisions all reducing or limiting oversight.

“The current draft deviates significantly from the laws we worked to pass, jeopardizing the protection of communities and allowing operators leeway to exceed thresholds,” 24 state legislators said.

Follow on to yesterday's thread about Cannon ignoring Supreme Court precedent and siding with Nixon.

The republicans who would be king and the enablers who help them ...

Bolillos fresh out of the oven.

Seems like it'll be a night to make pambazos, especially since I just harvested the first couple rows of potatoes.

About the best we can do... And most important to shut it down. Now, let's shut down the rest ...

Prospect Energy’s 59 wells will end up in the ECMC Orphan Well program and will eventually be plugged and abandoned by the state.

“The refrain the county has been hearing from us and the community is that this was an operator that was not interested in complying with the air quality regulations."

A visitor came by while I was practicing Tai Chi this morning. It was in a fairly public place so there were lots of other people passing by. Who oohed and aahed at the Great Blue Heron. And rushed towards it to take pictures. The heron smartly moved away from the rapidly moving ground apes. And came to stand close by the slow stepping creature. It was a nice form.

Interesting to see a publication which a few years ago was totally worshipful of Musk speaking so clearly about climate change and about how totally wrong Musk is. Gradual progress!

Talking to the farmers I know who will most likely vote R suggests they'd be in a world of hurt if they couldn't hire undocumented workers. (Yes, of course, they should pay decent wages & hire documented people, but c'mon this is 'murican agriculture.) Dumb fucks: not just dumb, also cruel.

"You start with what's achievable," Vance said. "I think that frankly if you make it harder to hire illegal labor, which undercuts the wages of American workers"

OK hive mind, what are the most impactful places I can donate money for this fall's elections? I'm looking for statewide & congressional races where my money will make a difference. No Amy McGrath / Sara Gideon style money sinks. No grifter Resist holes. I'll consider PACs but only if they have an actual record and spend their money on actual efforts not just consulting and overhead. Tester? State parties? Gallego? Who else?

So, where should I send some $s?
